Storytelling Privacy Choices
How a parent or guardian sees, changes or deletes everything Storytelling holds about a child. Most of it takes one tap and does not go through me.
Last updated 23 August 2026
01Do it yourself, in the app
- Change or clear the child’s name — in the app’s settings. Stories stop using it from the next one onward. A real name was never required — a nickname works exactly as well.
- Change story preferences — themes and age range, at any time.
- Turn off the daily word — in the app, or Settings → Notifications → Storytelling.
- Delete everything — remove the app. The name, the preferences and the whole listening history go with it, immediately. Nothing is held anywhere else, so that is the whole deletion.
02What deletion actually removes
- Child’s name and preferences
- WhyUsed only to personalise a story. Stored on the device.
- Where it goesDeleting the app erases it. Immediate, no request.
- Listening history
- WhyWhich stories were played, finished or favourited, and where playback stopped.
- Where it goesDeleting the app erases it.
03For parents and guardians
A parent or guardian may exercise every right on this page on a child’s behalf, at any time, by emailing kolisnyk7@gmail.com. No account, no proof of purchase and no reference number is needed — just tell me what you want done.
If you believe a child has provided personal data you did not intend, contact me and I will delete it. Storytelling shows no advertising and shares no child’s data with anyone for advertising purposes.
04Your rights, and how to use them
Depending on where you live, you have the right to ask what personal data is held about you, to have it corrected, to have it deleted, to restrict or object to its processing, and to receive it in a portable format. In California you also have the right to opt out of "sale" or "sharing" of personal information.
To make any request, email kolisnyk7@gmail.com with what you want done. I answer these myself, within 30 days.
You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority. In the EEA that is your national supervisory authority, in the UK the Information Commissioner’s Office, and in Ukraine the Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights.
